Kiwi Bills fan Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 You know... I don't want to sound like a prick but I really can't stand this show. I've only seen bits and pieces of it in addition to the commercials but isn't this the show where they help out less-fortunate people by tearing down their crappy uncared for homes and replace them McMansions? Instead of spending all this bling on a single house, don't you think it would be better served to help out numerous needy families by restoring (or rebuilding) multiple houses? Heck, why not teach these people how to do the DIY projects themselves?? Self sufficiency, Norm Abrams style. Note: Before you blast me for thinking I'm uncaring, it should be noted that I'm going to Samoa in a few months to rebuild villages that were destroyed by last Octobers Tsunami.

In this weeks episode they are supposed to be doing improvements to the neighborhood. What they are, we'll have to wait till the show airs. It's a decent show, BUT it's not a home improvement show like you mentioned. I would never suggest someone to watch this if they want to learn about how to fix and repair their own home. I grew up watching This Old House with my Dad and watching/working with him as he rebuilt our house, room by room. BTW, Steve Thomas, worst host ever.

CarolinaBill Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 This a really good episode, the poor woman was ripped off by some WNY scumbag, now she's finally getting the home she deserved, and they are helping the whole neighborhood. It's nice to see some people doing good, not just whining and complaining, and being nasty to others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but sounds like this woman barely looked at the house before buying it, much less have it inspected. Didn't she go in the basement? Also the west side has plenty of "homesteads" from the City of Buffalo for just $1. They are in terrible shape but at least they aren't on a demo list.

San Jose Bills Fan Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 My former landlord in Black Rock during the 80s bought a house on Normal and was prominent in the movement to have work done to several homes on that block during the taping for this show. Great news for Buffalo and it gladdens me to know this show helped out our fair city. On the other hand, there's so much bad news economically in Buffalo on a daily basis (today's news was the appraisal of the Statler Towers at negative $12 million and the struggles of the Flying Bison Brewing Company for instance) that those who hope for a renaissance for our city are probably being overly optimistic at best. For many years I stayed in Buffalo hoping for an economic turnaround. After 35 years of living in my hometown I left in 2002 and am still waiting for that economic turnaround. I just couldn't wait any longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
